Me, Costner and Snow White are Gonna Be BFFs When I Head Back to Los Angeles! #McFarlandUSAEvent

#McFarlandUSAEvent

Last year, I got to cross a number of items off my bucket list including hanging with Captain America and interviewing a Muppet.

Apparently I didn’t embarrass myself too much interviewing Scarlett Johansson because I just got invited to my second Disney Blogger Trip in Los Angeles!!! This time …

The Puffin Teapot That Got Away

PUffin bell, Puffin Mug, Puffin Statue

Allie’s a bird lover. A big bird lover. No, not the Sesame Street one. I mean she loves birds. Always has, always will. Her favorite by far is the puffin, a.k.a. the Clown of the Sea. As crazy a fan as I am of Captain America, she’s equally obsessed with puffins. Our house is full of puffin goodies from framed pictures to adorable puffin mugs to puffin statues to a puffin whistle! We use that Puffin …
